Description of tomato Slivovka

Description of the variety

Tomatoes of this type grow short, about 40-45 cm. They are classified as determinate varieties of tomatoes. The structure of the fruits is round and slightly oblong, somewhat reminiscent of small zucchini. They are also often compared to plums because of their shape, which is where the name Slivovka comes from. The fruits are always just red, rich and ruddy. The total weight of one fruit is usually from 75 grams. and up to 110 gr. The very first fruits will be the largest, and then, when the bush grows, there will be more fruits, but their mass will change slightly.

Tomatoes demonstrate good productivity, up to 10 kg are obtained from 1 bush. The variety is considered universal, so the fruits are also used for fresh use, and are also suitable for canning, tomato, and dressing. Often one bush is 2-3 stems, but most often only 2 are used. It can be planted in open ground; the soil is not important for this variety.

Positive aspects of the variety

Absolutely any plant has its positive and negative sides. Rarely are negative aspects noticed in this species. And, if you believe the reviews of many gardeners, there are none at all.

The positive aspects are presented below.

1. The fruits are distinguished by their versatility, ripen well and grow to medium sizes. They have a pleasant and rich taste. Some say that it has a sweet taste with sourness, while others say that the variety is generally sweet.
2. Interesting and attractive external characteristics, beautiful appearance, which gives a big plus to the Slivovka variety.
3. A significant advantage is that this variety has good yield results.

5. The fruits ripen very quickly and by their color (red) it becomes clear that they are ripe.
6. Varietal qualities are excellent.

The fruits of this variety can withstand long-term storage

The positive aspects include the fact that a tomato of this type can be stored for a very long time, the main thing is to withstand all storage standards. They should be placed in wooden boxes, preferably with newspaper between each layer, and of course, moisture and temperature must be taken into account. According to reviews from gardeners, it is clear that this variety can last until the New Year.

Negative points

The description of the variety demonstrates that tomatoes also have some disadvantages. Sometimes there are situations when the seedling does not grow. This happens very rarely, and most often due to the fact that he is simply “capricious.” Perhaps he did not like the very fact that he was transported and planted from one conditions and soils to others. In this case, the bush will either simply grow poorly at first, or die completely. It is then that it is necessary to intensively provide fertilizer and humus, add calcium and watering.

Despite this disadvantage, such situations are rare. The tomato root system has good resistance. They can withstand severe frosts and severe drought, but then it is unlikely that good yields can be expected from them.

Rules for planting varieties

Most experts advise carrying out the sowing stage 30-33 days before the first warm weather. That is, it is best to do this in early spring, but when there is no longer frost. You can plant 3-4 pieces per m². seeds, but no more. This can lead to the roots growing incorrectly and, as a result, not taking the necessary vitamins from the soil and then you will not get a good harvest.

And of course, the most important rule is to fertilize the soil before planting the plant. First, the area needs to be dug up, and then only fertilized. Basically, as mentioned earlier, the plant can live and flourish in any soil.

Growing and Harvesting

Often, tomatoes are planted at the beginning of March and the end of April. On one plant they leave 2 stems, sometimes 3, but this phenomenon is very rare. The bush also needs to be tied up when it reaches its peak of ripening; the fruits will gain mass and break the branches.

How to make your dream come true

The variety is unpretentious. It is not difficult to achieve the specified yield. It is worth following the recommendations of agrobiologists:

• sow for seedlings no later than March 20;
• pay attention to soil fertility;
• observe crop turnover;
• pluck seedlings when 2 true leaves grow;
• highlight, ventilate, temper, feed;
• prepare the landing site in advance (in autumn);
• place in permanent beds after the end of spring frosts;
• To strengthen the tomatoes, feed them when planting;
• the plant overloads itself with fruits: the soil should be mulched;
• follow the rule: it is better to dry it than to overwater it;
• feed with mineral complexes.

Agricultural technology of tomatoes Cream

This variety is grown according to the same principle as any other tomato variety - in seedlings.

Productivity primarily depends on the quality of the seeds used:

• They should not be hollow, which is easy to check by immersing them in a saline solution. Full-bodied seeds will sink to the bottom, and those that float should be discarded;
• Deformed seeds are also not used - they will produce low-quality seedlings;
• To prevent diseases, seeds are disinfected by immersing them in a solution of hydrogen peroxide or potassium permanganate for 10 minutes.

Note! To speed up germination, after planting the seeds, it is recommended to cover the soil in the seedling box with a damp cloth. The soil should also be disinfected and then fertilized

To avoid excess moisture, containers for seedlings are chosen with drainage holes. 2 months after sowing, seedlings can be sent to the beds using a standard step-by-step planting algorithm

The soil should also be disinfected and then fertilized. To avoid excess moisture, containers for seedlings are chosen with drainage holes. 2 months after sowing, the seedlings can be sent to the beds using the standard step-by-step planting algorithm.

When caring for cream, special attention is paid to fertilizing. Experienced summer residents offer several options for nutrient mixtures to which this variety of tomatoes is responsive.

Fertilizers for tomatoes Cream

Organic fertilizers are applied to the soil in the fall when digging the area prepared for planting tomatoes next year.

Watering

Cream varieties do not like dry weather, so they need to be watered regularly. But excess moisture is not allowed - this is harmful to the root system. Therefore, during the rainy season and in cool weather, watering is not carried out.

Drip irrigation of tomatoes

The water should be warm enough so that the plants do not get sick. Only the soil around the trunk is watered. To prevent moisture from getting on the foliage and fruits, it is advisable to equip the beds with drip irrigation.

Diseases

On a note! Not all varieties of Cream are disease resistant. To get rid of fungi and bacteria, it is recommended to treat the bushes with Fitosporin, Fundazol, Ridomil. When the first signs of the disease are detected, limp and affected leaves and stems must be removed immediately. To reduce the risk of damage, tomatoes should not be planted next to or after potatoes.

Evaluation of varieties by gardeners

The summer resident complains: she planted Slivovka in the greenhouse. She fed, watered, ventilated. The bushes are stretched, fattening, there are few tomatoes. Not surprising: the variety is designed for reactive fruiting in short summers. Other conditions are not suitable.

A gardener from the Moscow region: “We plant Slivovka in May under film. We cover the beds with straw. After frost we remove the cover. All! All that remains is to eat tomatoes. We roll them whole into jars and eat them fresh. At the end of July we collect the remains. They ripen well at home. We eat tomatoes until the beginning of November.”
